--- Comment #2 from Sebastian Lackner <sebastian at fds-team.de> ---
I am not able to reproduce this issue. I don't have any application affected by
this, so I manually created *.desktop files, one with a uppercase glob pattern,
and one with a lowercase pattern. In both cases its recognized correctly.

I was also searching for the specification mentioned in the description, but
wasn't able to find it. The only (probably related) document I would is
https://developer.gnome.org/shared-mime-info-spec/, but there it says:

--- snip ---
Applications MUST match globs case-insensitively, except when the
case-sensitive attribute is set to true. This is so that e.g. main.C will be
seen as a C++ file, but IMAGE.GIF will still use the *.gif pattern.
--- snip --

Wine doesn't put case-sensitive attributes in any files, so everything should
be fine. Does this problem still exists?
